I’ve never used one, but I’m looking to get one for my parents as a gift. Personally, I’d go fire stick because I’ve had few issues and it seems simple enough, but they don’t have Prime so it doesn’t make a lot of sense.
They are set up on iPhones (a bit of struggle) and an iPad. They have little/no experience with smart TVs; currently just antenna TV and a chromecast from their computer (also a difficult explanation).
Would an Apple TV be a soft learning curve for them? Any other suggestions?
Easiest set top box interface around. Nothing to really tinker with. Make sure their apps are working, leave the passwords somewhere handy, and enjoy.
